Abstract

Yarns can be interlaced, interlooped, or intertwined to produce a range of textile products. The manufacturing of yarns involves the conversion of staple fibers and/or filaments into linear fibrous assemblies. Ring spinning is the most common method of producing staple yarn and is the quality benchmark for alternative staple spinning methods. Continuous multifilament yarns are texturized for apparel applications. High-performance apparel applications can employ engineered commodity fibers or high-performance fibers/filaments to produce required yarn assemblies. In some instances, the commodity fibers/filaments can be used in a specialist yarn structure to meet high-performance needs. The use of multiple fine yarns to produce sewing thread is critical to produce a high-performance garment. The chapter aims to provide a holistic overview of yarn and thread manufacturing methods.
